Help & Search
Using the option of "incognito window" is offered by Chrome and it does help, but Google still collects cookies anyway.
Once I made the mistake of clicking on some random ad while I was playing solitaire one day. And I quickly closed that window and went on with my game. Wouldn't you know it, that same ad followed me around everywhere for the next 3 weeks until I finally went into Chrome and deleted all my cookies.
That was years ago, and I've never clicked on any ads since then.
Whenever I use Google search, I type in random Democratic names, or sometimes I use German names for stuff. That seems to fool the tracking aps pretty well.
